You've got it, Pachypsylla celtidisvesiculum
Fantastic photos as usual!

I assume this beast
was found on Tecoma stans by pure chance and not used as a host.
Thank you Chris!

Yep
This time of year you can expect to find many psyllids overwintering on plants other than their hosts; all of the Celtis reticulata I've seen recently have lost most of their leaves so it makes sense for these to temporarily go elsewhere (but probably usually not too far from hackberry)
